Reminds me of the launch days, trying to grind between contacts in Independence Port with my triple slotted Super Speed kat/Regen scrapper. I may have been part of the reason they added suppression 😂
-
I'm surprised this thread wasn't moved or locked lol
FWIW I did make part 2 of the review

I have roughly 50 toons, probably 35 that would be considered inactive. I spend a fair amount of time coming up with a name and concept for each of them however, and if someone really wanted their name I'd be impressed.
-
I just used your lighting guide to refresh my memory on a few things, much appreciated. I subscribed to your channel while I was there, good stuff 👍

I don't know how this got into the badge forum... should probably be in Arts

I made a video on YT about public transit bases recently:
and I have received a couple requests to cover more of them, so if you know of any public transport bases to be mentioned, partiulary on Reunion since I skipped them in my last video, please post the sever + code and I'll do my best to include them.
I'm still a novice at videos, and if you're looking for gorgeous reviews of gorgeous bases I recommend this channel, from : D on YT

Cheers and thank you heroes & villains. 😃

Wow, you guys just made my day with this post. I've been making CoH content on YouTube for a few weeks now, but I haven't mentioned it here because I thought self-promotion wasn't allowed.
It started with a pair of videos I made for fun on my music playlists channel:
Radiation Defender VS Nemesis
Regen Scrapper VS Extreme Endurance Drain
Unlike most of my YT vids at the time, they actually got some views, so I reactivated my gaming channel (https://youtube.com/channel/UCQfzeiQr02bZ2B73QEXZOvg) and have been busy testing out my editing skills.
My favorite CoH vid so far is this one, where my main faces off with his arch rival in a custom mission I made for AE
I am very much a novice when it comes to making videos, and my computer can barely run the editor, but I hope to make entertaining content for awhile.

Kraken is the easiest GM, getting a team next time should be easy.
If you're into hunting GMs make a separate chat tab for Zone Event notices.

I gift usually between 1 to 5 mil in an email containing notes on how to start earning more quickly. They've all been appreciative of the help, but it's hard to say how much it influences their decision to keep playing.
I've made probably close to 20 such donations over the last 2 yrs and none of them are still around as far as I can tell. Most I never see again actually, but it could just be new players who roll one toon up to the mid 20's when the difficulty increases a bit and decide it's not for them. They all note however, how overwhelmingly friendly and supportive our playerbase is.
Perhaps it comes across as a burden, like they are then expected to perform for the money.

++ meant the enhancement couldn't be combined any further with lower levels. Statistically the same output.

How do you set the team size higher than 8?
-
Spring Attack, hands down for the fun factor. An epic leap and dive and an entire mob group knocked down. Great way to mitigate alpha strikes, too.

Red Bane is pretty good IMO

Off the top of my head, I'm not sure, but one way to tell would be to monitor the relevant stats via the Powers tab.
My most decorated hero has AM, maybe I'll conduct the research when I get back in game.

I've seen this idea discussed here before, but not in a dedicated thread.
My list includes higher level content, perhaps even Praetorian Epic AT's, potential low level cross-over between blue and redsides (PvP?), some kind of ambush mitigation, perhaps in the form of a T4V transaction, or perhaps even an accolade power, and perhaps even a Task Force of some kind.
All this would present of course not only a programming challenge, but a possibly lengthy lore revision.
Anyway, I wanted to start the conversation on this topic because I would like to see more incentive to play Gold side and I've seen similar sentiments expressed here.
Tell me what you think: Gold side rework, pipe dream or plausible?

>every good stalker is Too Cool For School. They have cool edgy names
My stalker is Edge of Moon, a classic styled mystical ninja. Back on Live he was a force to be reckoned with in Siren's Call, when you could pop an accuracy insp, Aim + Teleport Foe into a pile of caltrops where your team lay in wait. Strictly TP only travel, before the travel power combat nerf.

My favorite is usually the most recently created, but the last couple of months I returned to a low level Arachnos soldier I had made a year ago and made him Incarnate via story arcs and TFs. Made some Arachnos friends along the way.
Arbiter Keys, "The White Spider", mace Bane. He's the only character I do a little RP with. Even at 50 I haven't exactly nailed his persona down yet, but he's become my main of late.
-
Pendragon is a lost cause, I don't even try to save him, the sooner he dies the sooner he stops aggroing everything in sight.

I appreciate all the responses. In my defense, I was operating under the assumption that a SF offered at 45-50 would afford at least a slim chance of victory.
I am an oldschool player, fwiw, since we used to show up to Hami raids with no game plan.
I did take a villain to 50, AoE Rad/Rad corruptor around 2009, but I don't recall if LRSF was open then, I mostly soloed then.

Last night I ran a PuG LRSF, and most of the team, including myself hadn't done it before. Despite that, our gung-ho attitude carried us to the face off with the Freedom Phalanx with minimal casualties.
My toon was lv.46 and up until then mobs and bosses were 50 and below. The Phalanx however were all lv53 and we could barely make a dent on a team of +6 Heroes. Due to it being a strike force, we were unable to reset, and we were forced to quit.
The team was very understanding, given that it was a first time for a lot of us, but there was disappointment in the air.
Is this normal, are the Freedom Phalanx in LRSF hard coded to lv53?

The easiest way to start getting merits is collecting exploration badges, 5 merits per zone.
Use https://archive.paragonwiki.com , Vidiotmaps or street sweep for Tour Guide missions.
Paying attention to the Weekly Strike Targets (WST) can also help, if you have the time.

I should have picked up on that when I read 'Daleth'. It's true, there is a set of beacons solely for intra-base travel as well, good catch.
-
Beacons and portals must be of the same origin type, namely tech with tech, and arcane with arcane.
Switch to an arcane beacon and see if that works.

Mostly on Imdomitable, but I do have a few toons here I like:
Tactical Burn
Lv28 Fire/Fire tank - Steampunk Iron man
Code Lock
Lv24 Bots/FF MM - Futuristic mercenary
Wynstan Wymore
Lv24 Fire/Ice blaster - Tattooed, grey bearded, bespectacled Gen-X hipster finally learns magic

If YouTube counts, I've been making CoH vids for a few months now, and I make a point to find other channels that are also playing CoH and like, sub and comment on the vids, even the ones that are unedited 2 hour sessions.
OP is right, growing the community takes all of us. I make videos because I can show what makes the game fun for me.
